In this episode, Indira Jaising, veteran lawyer and activist, Amarjeet Kaur, General Secretary of India's first trade union AITUC(All India Trade Union Congress), and Gautam Mody, General Secretary of NTUI (New Trade Union Initiative), discuss with Harsh Mander about the 4 Labour Codes that have replaced the 44 labour laws that prevailed in the past.
They explain how these laws have effectively dismantled even the weakened labour protections of the earlier labour laws. They have legitimised a regime of contract and casual work, even in the formal public sector, and of "hire and fire". They have excluded the majority of workers from the weak labour protections that remain. The right to form unions, to collectively bargain and to strike have been substantially decimated. They question why the trade unions were not involved in the discussion of the consultation process of the codes.
They also argue that the new labour codes reinforce existing social hierarchies by forcing those who are already considered lower in society to remain exactly where they are. The conversation also leads to a troubling recognition that the labour codes are not merely economic reforms, but also perpetuate the caste based oppression within the labour system.
